Wow what a lot of Spooners! I am descended from George Spooner who lived in Hetton-le-Hole in the UK. Anyone else know of this branch?

I know that my Spooner ancestor, John, moved from Colchester, England to Amsterdam. His widow and sons then emigrated to the American colonies. I imagine your ancestor must have been Thomas Spooner, of Warwickshire, to whom our lovely (!!) family crest was awarded.
...Seriously, have you seen the crest? It's hideous!

Wayne, Your uncle is my uncle too! I'm Jim's daughter (but no longer a Spooner). Last time I saw Uncle George was at Grandma's 80th birthday party. He flew all the the way over from Oz to be with her.
